G&M Restaurant may get dancing, liquor license

The G & M Restaurant and Carry-Out, closed since November, could reopen selling beer, wine and liquor and maybe have some entertainment.

Astypalea Inc., a firm headed by Nicholas G. Stavlas, has applied for a liquor license at the restaurant in the 800 block of N. Hammonds Ferry Road that would allow dancing. The county liquor board has scheduled a hearing on that request Tuesday, Jan. 12, at 6:30 p.m.

The G & M, for two decades a popular Linthicum pizzeria, closed Nov. 14 when landlords Michael and Gerasimo Stavlas seized the property and changed the locks on the building in a rent dispute with George Tsimopolous, who operated the restaurant.

Mr. Tsimopolous has petitioned a federal court to dissolve his company under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. According to the papers filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Baltimore, the company owes nearly $1 million to creditors, including the Stavlas brothers.

Woman, 22, accused of drug possession

A Baltimore woman was charged with possession of cocaine after police stopped a car in which she was a passenger early Thursday morning.

According to the police report, officers on patrol at 3:14 a.m. saw a car drive into the Belle Grove Industrial Park. The driver of the car parked and turned on the interior light. The officers questioned the woman passenger in the car -- Peggy Ann Clark, 22, of the 3200 block of Cherryland Road -- and saw a corncob pipe fall out of her coat. The pipe had cocaine residue in it, the police report said.
